My hubby used to be the same way....my house in Eastport had a colonial blue living room when I met him (it's still blue too--the new owner liked it and kept it ), so he had a bit of a heads up....then when we bought this house he came home one day to find that I'd stripped all the wallpaper from the living room, and announced I wanted to paint the walls a sage color and the ceiling a dark green, and the trim bright white. He visibly cringed! lol...I told him then, and still repeat it with every project "It's only paint....if it looks bad I can paint over it!" that has helped. When I was talking about the dining room being this deep red I told him that if it's too dark being next to the living room, I'd paint over the dark green ceiling and make it lighter. His response? "NO....I love the dark green ceiling!!" lol....I should mention though, the living room is big and very open....3 very large doorways, and two large windows, and that's why the darker ceiling works. It makes this huge room feel cozier--hmmm....I'll see if I can get a picture (I'm embarrassed to say I can't find my camera right now! hopefully Amy took it for photography class to work with something different!)
I'm still looking for the recipe! If I can't find it today, I'm going to call....all I can remember is that it has beer in it well, and corn meal of course, but the beer sticks with me!

No problems. Been looking for quite a number of years already, a bit more time won't matter. Thanks again.
It is raining really HARD here....geez, I miss the weather report for a couple of days and look what happens! This morning was fine....it's coming down harder than it did the other day.....Maine Writer I hope you fair better this time around! Are we all supposed to get this? wow....I almost blew away when I went out to vote--no easy feat there ....ok, I'll stop rambling and go look at the weather channel site!
geeez.....where is everyone? ok, did you all notice this thread is 91 pages long?? how cool is that? and we've got to dig that photo thread out again....I thought we were going to sticky that? what happened to that? anyone remember?.......ok, I'll go over to the game forum for a little bit......

Yeah I did notice it. 91 pages is a LONG thread here. I'm on a Martial Arts forum that one thread has been going all summer and is up to 3255 pages. I should start the same type here in the games section. Just to see if it continues to grow like that one did (and continues to, some days 10-15 pages.)

I was thinking about that last night. I forgot that we were going to request the sticky for that thread. I think we all decided (with CG's help) that would be the best option for a sticky on our forum. Let's get 'r done!
